    "RV" Shows ??

    Hi, I've been to 3-4 Kentucky events in the last year, titled "RV Show", "Boat and RV Show", etc. I've been really disappointed in all of them. Maybe it's just Kentucky. :confused: For example: I just went to the Lexington "Boat and RV Show" in Rupp Arena. There were probably 100 boats...

    "Early" vs. "Late" 2004 Ford F250 ?

    Hi all, I read a couple of posts awhile back, which stated that the "early" 2004 F-250 (diesel only?) trucks had a serious problem, and to only buy "late" 2004 trucks, or newer. I've found a 2004 Lariat diesel online that looks good, and I have the VIN. Is there anyway to tell when it was...

    Bighorn in Lexington, KY

    ;) I was drooling. A Bighorn with four slides filling up at the Speedway gas station, Hamburg area, near I-75. Being towed by a Michigan Chevy 2500HD 4x4, white, looked like two occupants. It looked like a brand new unit - still had some tags on it. :D

    New Repo RV - Bargain or Bomb?

    Hi all ! I just found this on ebay, looks like it was just listed. It's a NEW 2007 Sundance, never sold, repo. On the one hand, I want to say, could be a great deal. On the other hand, what concerns should I have with an RV that's been sitting on a lot for two (three?) years? Would I have to...

    Solar & Battery performance ?

    Hi all, I've got a few questions about Solar performance and capacity. I don't see these specifically addressed on the forum already. I have seen the posts pointing to calculators for designing a system. I'm just trying to get a feel for battery performance. Let's say I have two 6 volt golf...

    Newbie diesel vs. gas question

    Hey all, I've been reading the posts and articles about diesel vs. gas TV's. I need to come up with one in the near future. Not trying to step on anyone's toes, but let me share my diesel thoughts, and get your opinions: Diesel - pro - 25-30% more mpg con - Diesel is consistently 25-30%...

    Tow Vehicle Setup - requirements?

    Hi all, It's looking more and more like I will be joining your ranks early next year. Sorry for the long post - I've never owned an RV before, or a real TV for that matter. I've been researching the posts about GVWR, loaded vs. unloaded, ABC, 123, etc., and my head is spinning. :confused: Let...

    Lex, KY Show 3/16/2008 Sundance wins again!

    I attended the RV show in Lexington, KY, this past weekend. There were ten dealers there, with probably 50 RV's. There were actually two Heartland dealers there - Best Buy RV's, Springfield, OH; and Cave Run RV Outlet, Eastern Kentucky. Cave Run had some North Trails, and Best Buy had a couple...

    Lexington, KY Show

    Hi, all, The Lexington, KY, RV/Boat Show is this weekend, in Rupp Arena and Heritage Hall. I went this afternoon, and was pretty disappointed. There were several very small TT's, maybe 10-20'+ TT's and around 5-5er's. There were boats, boats, and more boats. There were actually two...

    General questions (electric, underbelly)

    Hi all, Newbie questions. 1) I'm considering Full-timing, staying in one place (doing computer work from the RV via satellite). I don't own an RV yet - looking at a Bighorn. I would like to park the RV in a friend's large driveway and connect to his electric somehow. Would a 110 outlet on...

    Newbie - Big Country 3500RL

    Hello, Let me say I'm really impressed with the Heartland Forum :) . Being a techie myself, it's a great resource. I hope you all don't mind several general questions. I went through the FAQ, and didn't find answers. I'm thinking of purchasing my first RV, a Big Country 3500RL. I would be...
